Vai's virtuosity is undeniable and can shred with the best of them but to me it's stuff like this that he is at his best. Gorgeous melodically and music is meant to provoke emotion. In this respect Vai is king of the shredders in my book.
To answer your question, yes he has been married for decades and he even named his newest signature guitar model after his wife ( the PIA ). She used to play Bass and they met due to music.
Based on your reaction. Vai's music everything the note the feel the melody and the emotion. It's Like steve vai tap your shoulder like how you doin ❤😊
You're wife always makes the most interesting, and accurate observations. You did good my brother. Amd you my brother, complete thw picture with your observations. Well done. Always
I went to a Steve Vai masterclass. Somebody asked him how much he used to practice. "When I was in school 9 hours a day, obviously more in the weekends" was Steve's Antwerpen.
with everything else that was said about Steve in the comments also understand the premise of this song along w the almost all the others on the album called "Alive in the Ultra World" were written in consideration for each country he visited - this one if I remember right was written for Ireland.... my personal fav of this slbum is "The Black Forest" which was written for Germany .... great stuff guys keep on checking out more of Steve !!!
The last time I saw him perform this in person it brought me to tears and brought the audience to our feet. Our reaction surprised him, as if he couldn't believe how much this song moved us. And yes, he has been married to the lovely Pia Maiocco Vai since 1988 and they have two adult sons, Fire and Julian. Nice guys, the both of them. In her honor, his new signature Ibanez guitar, successor to the legendary JEM seen in this performance, is named the Pia. Married to his guitar? Well, I guess you were almost right!
@@MerchantOfAlba You're most welcome, my friend! Watching him perform, it can indeed be hard to imagine him as anything other than a rock star, totally consumed with his musical trajectory. Greetings from Virginia, USA!
He is called the Space Aged Wiz Kid. He scored music for Frank Zappa when he was just a teen. You really must watch Dream Theater for some amazing guitar work. Especially their live stuff.
He is so good...go see him asap. He isnt getting younger, and you can tell he is taking different picking and notes to compensate for speed amd dexterity loss due to age.
I have heard it said by musicians and music teachers that music in its highest form is communication. It seems to me that Sohyang has that extraordinary talent when it comes to singing, and when it comes to guitarists Steve Vai also has that high, high talent or gift of communication through his guitar. 👀🤷🎸🎸🎸👽🛸💖💖💖
I keep telling y'all watch Steve Vai "Firewall with band intros" and "All About Eve" both are from his Where the Wild Things Are DVD... I promise you won't regret it 👍 and a plus is he actually sings in both 😮
Married many years a go with Pia Maiocco italian american like Vai. And two adult sons , and italian citizenship in Lombardy (north) region , in little town Lomellino in 2012 emigrate in Usa.
Hello, I love your channel, hope you can check out some music from Joy Division - She's Lost Control (Live At Something Else Show) -Love Will Tear Us Apart [OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO]
I think Dominika thinks Steve Vai is a decent player. considering how she described him.hahahahaha. Andrei get a guitar, have a go, pluck and pluck, till you can't pluck no more. happy plucky picky strumming. Dominika my advice to you Ear plugs!!!!!!!!
Great guitar player, but just because someone has excellent guitar playing skills does not make them a good songwriter. His compositions are tedious and uninteresting.

Best work of Steve Vai ❤

Answer not Antwerpen
Love Steve, beautiful piece of music. He's such a great showman 😅

Thank you kindly for letting me know. Never thought of him as a family guy. Don't mean it in a bad way. Greetings from Romania 💚

In the masterclass Steve talked about people being scared when he called for his son Fire in a shoppingmall
Steve and his wife 42 years. Watched him interview..such a nice, kind and very intelligent man. Who else could play a song for god,on a guitar?
🇬🇧 Oh my, i have never in my life heard a sound like that coming from a guitar! Clever clever guy. 🎶🎼🎸
This song makes me cry
He is called the Space Aged Wiz Kid. He scored music for Frank Zappa when he was just a teen.
You really must watch Dream Theater for some amazing guitar work. Especially their live stuff.
I think of Vai as Jeff Beck with more special effects on his guitar. And that’s a good thing in my eyes.
He is so good...go see him asap. He isnt getting younger, and you can tell he is taking different picking and notes to compensate for speed amd dexterity loss due to age.
You must watch him performing flash mob, theres steve and 30 russian guitarists all on the stage at the same time. Amazing.

"Steve Vai is the only guitarist who could play my parts".- Robert Fripp.
And Yes! Vai is the guitar on the new version of King Crimson ❤
Fun fact: Steve's hobby is keeping bees.
Pia Maiocco is Steve Vai wife...they been together 42 years. 😊
Yep, i eat my words 😀
There's even an Ibanez Pia nowadays
I keep telling y'all watch Steve Vai "Firewall with band intros" and "All About Eve" both are from his Where the Wild Things Are DVD... I promise you won't regret it 👍 and a plus is he actually sings in both 😮
We'll check it out for sure. Many thanks 👍
Please do a reaction of the song Building the church live in Minneapolis. I believe you're going to love it

Thank you for the info. 🙂
Listen to 'Windows to the soul' guys#
You might like a country song by Trace Adkins called " you're going to miss this"
If you want to be surprised go to Vai's mentor: Frank Zappa - Montana, Cheepnis, etc.
Steve is happily married and has children
in this one have more efect in the guitar than other songs but sounds good
and the people still find Santana to be one of the best....lol

I think the “ai” in Vai is pronounced like “buy” not like “bay”
Thank you 👍

This is great but there's a bit of a better live video of this song:

We actually find his compositions very interesting. He is so creative in his music. Thank you for stopping by 😊
